Re: [Paraview] VR-Plugin (VRPN connection) linker error
Hello, @David: thank you very much for that hint. The linker error is gone :-). @Aashish: We have a Virtual Environment with two back-projected walls. Each wall (2.6 m x 1.625 m) is lit by two projectors for stereoscopic presentations. Furthermore we use an infra-red tracking system from A.R.T with their VRPN server implementation to provide ParaView with tracking data. Beside a head target we use a so called Flystick. It has 6 DOF pose data, a small joystick and 6 Buttons and want to use to manipulate the view. The head tracked representation of a ParaView scene is really great. We have increased the depth perception, by building a virtual (background) scene. It is basically a room which extends the back projection space in, so the user seems to look through a window in room. This virtual scene is the starting point for building visualizations. Usually, our visualizations floating at the center of that room. The downside of this approach is to scale down large objects to fit in the view space which is not a big deal in our case. Another drawback is that we cannot use the camera manipulation. Rotating the camera would lead to a rotation of the entire scene (including the virtual background). Unfortunately, the current styles are limited to manipulate the virtual camera transformation, rather than single objects. But I saw in git that the geometry representation API has been extended to provide access to its transformation. Is it planned to have a VR style which manipulates the transformation matrix of a geometry object directly?

[Paraview] trigger a custom panel function/slot after apply button
Hello, I have custom panel (c++filter), and I want to recover some data from the filter AFTER the filter is applied. for example, set a position in the custom panel, Apply button, search the closest point in the input mesh, and (this is the difficult part), show the point position in the panel. I tried something like this in my panel but it does not work. QObject::connect(this , SIGNAL(onaccept()), this, SLOT(finish())); Is there a way to trigger a slot/ function in the panel after the filter has finished.

Re: [Paraview] Trying to run the servers on parallel
Hi Kevin, How good is your network between the remote PC that execute pvserver and your client computer that run paraview ? How big is your data ? What type of data is that ? Structured or unstructured ? Did you try to run pvserver on that very same machine without using MPI ? Does that change anything ? Did you try to go in ParaView/Edit/Settings and compare local rendering vs remote rendering performance ?

If you can I would be pleased if you answer in german. Also I want you to know that I haven’t a great knowledge about informatics. Well I try to use Paraview on parallel, but I think it doesn’t work right how I do it. I use a remote PC on which I will run the Paraview client and a extern server with up to 48 CPUs and good GPUs. So I start the server using “mpirun –np ‘number’ ../pvserver” or “mpirun –np ‘number’ ../pvserver –display localhost:0” (my Paraview is compiled with openmpi on a linux system). Then I connect over the remote PC in Paraview to this server (client/server mode). It works, but not well. I’ve got test data (about 1GB) and it takes about two minutes to change for example the filter from outline to wireframe. Also when I want to move the image with drag and drop it takes about five seconds to rerender it. I think for only 1GB it takes too long for doing this. Also I’m not sure if my server uses its GPUs or only its CPUs, I don’t know how to find it out. Would it be better to use my remote PC only as a display? Could you tell me how Paraview scales with the number of data sets and number of processes. Should I use ‘x’ processes to load ‘x’ data sets? Or is it better to use more processes than data sets (for example: Would it be better to use 8 processes for loading 6 data sets than using 6 processes?) Is there another way how I could start my server that it will work better? Or what can I change that it will work better? I hope you can help me a little bit and give me tips how I should use Paraview on parallel. Thanks.

[Paraview] Reading DEM files
Hi, I have SRTM DEM file and I tried to open it with Paraview 3.14 on Windows. When I click Apply in Properties pane it failed. Then I see there is new Paraview version - 3.98. I downloaded it, and I opened same file. Now clicking Apply seems like program reads the file, and data type is stated as Image: Uniform rectilinear grid, but without any data. I use gdal and it shows file correctly. I can transform DEM to other format with gdal_translate, if some format is more acceptable by Paraview, but I'm not sure to which format should I transform DEM file. Any suggestions?

Re: [Paraview] new memory inspector panel documentation
I'm replying on this thread, but my comments are really addressed to Pat. Having made use of the memory inspector, I have memory leaks in my reader and wanted to track them down. I tried to merge in the DebugLeaksView http://public.kitware.com/Wiki/DebugLeaksView helper which I thought would be nice to test. Using 3.98 I encountered conflicts and made a patch (though the conflicts I had might be caused by another tweak I made locally). Anyway, attached it a new patchset to get the debug leaks going in 3.98 For wiki page : I had to turn on VTK_DEBUG_LEAKS (fairly obvious) and manually enable vtkViewsQt module or something like that. When compiling, lots of include paths were wrong so I just hard coded them and manually added vtkViewsQt.lib to the link line for paraview exe. The debug leaks window is really fabulous. I spent an hour tweaking my code and reduced my ref counts and spare objects by a full factor of two. Now I have no leaks. Feature request : Combine memory inspector and debug leaks into a single dock window. (Is it feasible to view debug leaks on remote nodes? - while running possibly, but not at closedown I suppose). I may have a play with the QtDebugLeaks stuff if you aren't developing it any more to do the dock window combination changes. Patches attached are not very useful as the VTK stuff isn't included and it would only take you 2 minutes to do it yourself anyway. Mostly just wanted to bump this thread in case someone was going to cleanly integrate the debugleaks in 3.98 Thanks very much for both these memory management controls, really saved me a lot of work.

Hi All,
some parallel tests have been failing for some time on Nautilus.
http://open.cdash.org/viewTest.php?onlyfailedbuildid=2684614
There are MPI calls made after finalize which cause deadlock issues on SGI
MPT. It affects pvbatch for sure. The following snip-it shows the bug, and
bug report here: http://paraview.org/Bug/view.php?id=13690
//
bool vtkProcessModule::Finalize()
{
...
vtkProcessModule::GlobalController-Finalize(1);---mpi_finalize
called here
This shouldn't be calling MPI_Finalize() as the finalizedExternally
argument is 1 and in vtkMPIController::Finalize():
if (finalizedExternally == 0)
{
MPI_Finalize();
}
So my guess is that it's being invoked elsewhere.
...
#ifdef PARAVIEW_USE_MPI
if (vtkProcessModule::FinalizeMPI)
{
MPI_Barrier(MPI_COMM_WORLD);-barrier after
mpi_finalize
MPI_Finalize();--second
mpi_finalize
}
#endif
I've made a patch which should prevent this second of code from ever
being called twice by setting the FinalizeMPI flag to false after
calling MPI_Finalize(). Can you take a look here:
http://review.source.kitware.com/#/t/1808/ and let me know if that
helps the issue.
Otherwise, would you be able to set a breakpoint on MPI_Finalize() and
get a backtrace of where it gets invoked for the second time? That
would be very helpful in tracking down the problem.
Thanks,
Kyle

[Paraview] Select Cells On etc.: Remove current selection from whole selection - possible?
Hello to everybody, my question today relates to the useful GUI tools Select Points/Cells On/Trough. I already found out that I can extend an excisting selection with the Ctrl-key. But I could not find something to remove a small part from the selection with but keep most of the selected points/cells. In other programs (ie. ImageJ/Fiji) they use the ALT key to remove the current selection from the total selection but keep the rest (usually the boolean combinations are supported). I would assume that this is could be already possible with Paraview as well and I just cannot find it. If it is not supported. Would it be a big effort to implement this feature?

[Paraview] Union of Extract Selection ( and modification with Calculator) with all data
Dear all, I use the Paraview feature Extract Selection to edit data in a subset of my data set. Together with Calculator this is a very handy feature for me (I edit surface label which are used as identifier for boundary conditions in a FEA program). At present I have to save the changes (I do it as csv) and use an external program to replace the labels in the whole/main dataset based on the index numbers with my changes. This is not very convenient. I am sure that this can be done with the Paraview pipeline browser somehow or with a few python commands in the console. However, with my current knowledge I cannot solve this problem along and could use some advice, how to accomplish this. Thanks a lot.
